	Other articles mentioning NeXT include:
	
		p. 11 - Editoral:  CISC vs. RISC
		p. 52 - Sunsoft
		p. 57 -  Doesn't mention NeXT, but paint the new 
			SPARCstation 10 black, and you've got something 
			that looks like one.  :-)
		p. 87 - <shudder>  Wordperfect in UN*X.  (They say Wordimperfect
			for NeXT is in Beta????)

	You ever notice when you're flipping through your favorite computer  
journal, that the phrases, "Next step", "Next generation", "Next ..." keep  
coming up?  So you instantly start reading the article, only to find that  
they are talking about Windows NT or something similarly worthless.  Also,  
notice how the new machines read like last years NeXTs?  :-)
